The little table was getting crowded, which wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. It’s not as though someone could take advantage of the commotion by sneak-spiking the punch anymore than it already was. Colton just felt a bit of a smile tugging at his lips as he watched everyone interact, though at the mention of a vending machine he tilted his head to look over at the one talking, having to squint against the bright light from the one beside them. It was like a miniature sun in the room, and actually rather enjoyable for his scales. Which were just touched.

Colton arched an eyebrow at Ebbo, flicking his tail which made a slight rattling come from the end. Despite the somewhat threatening noise he continued smiling, especially as the other man began rambling. At the ... somewhat jumbled compliment he even laughed lightly, looking to Jackie with a lopsided grin and a little red underneath the black scales around his eyes.

“This one yours?” He asked lightly, trying to keep his tone playful. His gaze quickly flicked back to Ebbo, unable to help the slight chuckle that rose up in his chest. “Really though, no worries. You can make it up by showing me the machine, if it’s alright ma’am.” He gave a nod to Jackie before turning back to the table first, taking note of the first man he asked gesturing toward the exit and offering his hand. Colton was quick to take it in a firm grip, dipping his head to Ash.

“Name’s Colton.” The naga replied in a strong voice, loud enough the others could hear. “Just got in last night, ‘fraid I’m at a disadvantage with most everyone.” However Colton just shrugged, and after a moment eyed one of the girls. Ash had addressed them – so it was either Haley or Saranja. Somehow he felt she was Haley, compared to the more exotic name for the goat one. His tail rattled slightly.

“I’ll pick you up a drink too so you don’t have to take this swill. Didn’t even put anything good in here.”
